       Draft reps
       [indent]
       Dear London Borough of Waltham Forest,
       I am writing to make representations against penalty charge
       notice FR60585078).
       I would like to bring to your attention the circumstances
       surrounding this PCN and kindly request a review of the penalty.
       On the date in question, I was indeed parked on my own road;
       however, I was using a courtesy car provided to me while my
       personal vehicle was undergoing repairs in a garage. I followed
       the correct procedure and added this courtesy car to my resident
       permit via the Waltham Forest portal, ensuring I remained
       compliant with parking regulations in the area.
       I refer you to the courtesy car hire agreement at LINK
       Unfortunately, the oversight occurred when I received my
       personal car back from the garage. Due to the relief of having
       my own vehicle back and the subsequent rush to return to my
       daily routine, I regrettably forgot to update my resident permit
       to remove the courtesy car from it. It was an honest mistake,
       and I deeply regret any inconvenience it may have caused.
       I understand the importance of enforcing parking regulations and
       appreciate the need for fair and just application. In this
       instance, I genuinely believed I was in compliance with the
       rules by adding the courtesy car to my permit during its use.
       However, my failure to promptly remove it once I regained access
       to my personal vehicle resulted in this PCN.
       I have now rectified the situation by updating my resident
       permit and removing the courtesy car, ensuring such a mistake
       will not happen again in the future. I am grateful for your
       understanding and ask for your understanding in this matter.
       While I am trust the above will suffice to justify cancellation
       of the penalty charge on this occasion, I should also point out
       that the sign for the bay would support code 16 "Parked in a
       permit space or zone without a valid virtual permit or clearly
       displaying a valid physical permit where required", there is no
       evidence the bay in question is signposted as a residents' or
       shared use bay so a code 12 contravention did not occur.
       Yours faithfully,
       [/indent]
       I'll email you the link, get your friend to make representations
       online and keep a screenshot of the confirmation screen.
